Smooth crossing of North Sea

Morning announcement at 9 in the morning was
promising for a calm crossing of the North Sea. Therefore, it was possible to enjoy the view over the sea
from open deck, in either the Jacuzzis or taking a stroll around the decks.

The sea day gave us the chance to prepare for
the adventures to come. Going to the Norwegian fjords some obvious topics had
to be covered Vikings and Salmon. Not only did we hear the lecture about
salmon, but also the delicious Norwegian fish was served for dinner.

Our Expedition Leader Karin Strand used to
opportunity to prepare for embroiders class that she will hold later on this
cruise. She was spotted in the strangest settings with embroidery in hand.

It was a relaxing evening onboard with movies
and live music by Ralf.We are
ready for an early start tomorrow to enjoy the spectacular Lysefjorden.
